    First I have to say, I love your hair cut that way! You look wonderful.
    I am also saying good riddance to Lane Bryant and all "woman's" sizes. The clothes in these sizes were Horrible! They are the last resting place for polyester, pockets on boobs, and shoulder pads...shudder. They have the ugliest patterns, usually with a big flower planted in each butt cheek, and the most dismal color selection of black, brown or oatmeal. The people who design and sell large clothing must really hate their clientele to provide such ugliness.
    I'm currently a 14, but I just bought a few jeans at Goodwill, (for $7), because I expect to moving to smaller sizes before spring. I don't want to spend a lot of money on clothes that will soon be too big.

    Thank you so much. I always hated shopping at Lane Bryant, not only due to my size but due to the fact that the plus size clothes are horribly ugly. I second everything you just said.

    You are so inspirational! I shop at Lane Bryant now and I cannot wait to get out of there and into the "regular" stores!! My husband has been using MyFitnessPal for the last 5 months and has lost 65 pounds! I'm really excited about my new journey with this new program (for me)! Thanks for posting this story.

    I used to WORK at Lane Bryant because I got mad working at a retail store I couldn't even shop in. Just started MFP, and I'm so encouraged. My first big goal is to not be able to shop in LB anymore. Thanks for the motivation reminder!

    That's always been my dream, to get out of the "fat ladies" store. My husband and I love to travel, but my fear is that if my luggage was ever lost I would be screwed. Plus sizes are not always easy to come by , especially if you in a foreign country. That's my goal to get into a size that would allow me to shop anywhere. Congratulations on your success, I can't wait to get there!

    I haven't been to the mall in a long time. As I was walking along I passed a Lane Bryant. I just smiled and gave a wave as I passed by. I told my husband there is NOTHING there that would fit me anymore. Even the smallest size they carry is way too big now. What an amazing feeling. When I started MFP I was busting out of a size 24 (I'm 5' 8") and Lane Bryant was pretty much the only store I could shop in. I'm now fitting easily into a size 10 and I have a whole mall full of stores was at my disposal. I'm walking on air tonight.

    I joke I could open my own Lane Bryant store b/c all my clothes is from there! This is something I can't wait for! Or to be able to borrow clothes from a friend like all my other friends do. You are a great inspiration! Congratulations on such an incredible achievement!!

    Thank you, thank you and thank you :-) My profile pic was completely unplanned. I was trying on my old pants for my SIL and I asked my daughter to see if she could climb in with me. LOL
